THEATRE REVIEW: Analog.Ue
March 27, 2014 | ShaxsterDaniel Kitson has a reputation as one of the best (if slightly obscure) comedians in the country. He refuses to go along with what everyone else does, shunning social media, panel shows and arena tours in favour of small, intimate performances, announced with little fanfare. With Analog.Ue, he goes a step further: here, we have a show where Kitson remains silent for the entire duration. 95 minutes of a prerecorded performance, played out using 46 analogue tape machines. Sounds strange? It certainly is – but that doesn’t stop it from being excellent. Read More

REVIEW: Jazzpunk
March 23, 2014 | StevenIt is the year 1959B, and the Soviets are up to no good. I know this because I am a secret agent, an invisible tool my government deploys for tasks requiring the utmost discretion – like, say, stealing a Soviet hard drive from their imposing headquarters. Sounds difficult? Maybe for an amateur like you – but professionals like me always have a plan. Naturally, it begins in the park outside the headquarters. I walk up to my contact and say hello to him. “WHERE IS THE MACGUFFIN?” he screams at me, with impressive volume. Confused, I ask him again, and get the same reply, only louder. I wander off to ask a passerby what a MacGuffin is, but the first guy I run into asks me for some gum. I hand my last stick to him, and he blows a bubble so big that it bursts in his face, blinding him. He then, naturally, rolls into oncoming traffic.
This isn’t what I signed up for.
